What is THIMUN?

The Hague Model United Nations is a simulation of the United Nations Organisation, where every year over 3500 students from all over the world come together to discuss global issues. Each school represents a country and through lobbying, drafting and debating exercises, the delegates hope to find solutions to problems relating to Human Rights, Peace and Security, Disarmament, Environment....and this year's topic of Crime and Punishment. This year CDL represents Zimbabwe.


Participation in THIMUN gives students a unique educational experience where they can develop public-speaking and debating techniques, research tools and valuable communication skills. Students leave THIMUN with a new level of autonomy and global awareness that prepares them for their future.
